Yes...you are correct. And lucky for us, The General contracted smallpox the "natural" way on a trip to Barbados with his older half-brother Lawrence in 1750, so he was quite immune when it was the scourge of the colonies during the RevWar.

The pox left him with a pitted nose.

Yet the General would have survived what was his fatal illness, had a tracheotomy been performed rather than blood letting.

I had chicken pox do the same thing to me as a boy, to a small degree: I have two little, pinhead-sized scars on the bridge of my nose, one on either side, in the exact same locations. Up close (REAL close), it almost looks like a second set of tiny nostrils that never opened.
